HAND CARVED STERLING SILVER PERTHRO RUNE PENDANT

HAND CARVED STERLING SILVER (OXIDIZED) PERTHRO RUNE PENDANT

An ancient alphabetic scripts, each of whose letters possessed a meaningful name as well as a signifying sound, Runes were employed for legal documents, for writing poetry, for inscriptions and divination. The art of the Runes dates back to Viking times and is used to form a bridge between our logical mind and our unconscious. The Runes embody the greatest and the smallest secrets of nature and they are the keys to those secrets – for they are indeed the secrets themselves.

The cup shape of the P-rune means a vessel - possibly for casting lots. This rune is one of the more controversial among runic scholars, as the "P" sound at the start does not actually appear anywhere else in early Germanic languages. It is commonly thought that the rune's name, which is now lost to antiquity, was altered over the centuries with the development of more modern alphabets. Perthro represents a vessel, something to be filled and drunk from. There is also significant evidence that the cup referenced by Perthro is a 'dice-cup', of the kind commonly used in games of chance and fate.

The P-rune is perceived as a constant change that always remains the same.
